~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The following was lovingly written by Jeff's family...

Donald Jeffrey “Jeff” Kemp 

was a devoted husband, father, Papa, brother, uncle and friend.

 He died far too soon after a long fight with cancer.

Jeff was born and raised in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma.

 He later found the life he had always wanted

 in the country with his wife, Rhonda. 

They were best friends and true partners, 

building a life together rooted in family, friendship, 

and the things they loved.

A lifelong drummer, 

Jeff began playing music with his high school rock band, 

Homemade Jam. 

Music remained an important part of his life and

 brought him friendships that lasted for decades.

Jeff enjoyed hunting and fishing,

 old Ford trucks,

 and time spent with his dogs. 

He shared a close bond with his brother, Mark, 

and followed in his father’s footsteps by joining the

 Freedom Hill Volunteer Fire Department.

 He was proud to serve and greatly valued the friendships

 he made within his fire family.

Jeff was a kind and genuine man who made people feel at ease. 

He was a loyal friend, a loving husband, 

and the best dad and Papa his family could have asked for. 

He was deeply loved and will be greatly missed.
